Snickerdoodle Fudge
Description
This Snickerdoodle Fudge begins by gently melting white chocolate chips and butter over medium-low heat until smooth. Cream cheese frosting is then mixed in over low heat to form the fudge base. The fudge is poured into a lined pan, spread evenly, and topped with a cinnamon and granulated sugar blend, which adds a delicate snickerdoodle flavor and a lightly gritty texture contrast on the surface.
After at least two hours at room temperature to fully set, the fudge can be lifted out of the pan using the lining and sliced into consistent squares. The result is a creamy, smooth candy with a cinnamon sugar topping that provides a mild spice note without overpowering the sweetness.
The recipe notes that the size of fudge pieces will affect yield and nutritional content, and uniform cutting helps portions stay consistent. The combination of white chocolate and cream cheese frosting forms a stable base that slightly softens the typical fudge texture for a tender bite.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 16 ounces white chocolate chips (3 1/4 cups)
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 16 ounces cream cheese frosting 1 tub, premade
Instructions
- Line an 8-inch x 8-inch baking pan with foil or parchment paper, leaving some hanging over the edge. Set aside.
- Mix the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
- Add the chocolate chips and butter to a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat.
- Add the container of frosting to the saucepan and place back over low heat. Stir constantly until the fudge mixture is smooth and the frosting is melted.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle all over the cinnamon sugar over the fudge.
- Let the fudge sit on the counter for at least 2 hours to set up.
- Once set, use the parchment paper to lift the fudge from the pan. Peel off the paper and cut the fudge into 25 pieces (5x5 grid).
